Hospital Builds $360 Million Dollar Women's Unit Equiped With Robotics And Day Spa Services
Story here. Excerpt:
'The all-women's unit is one of many innovations revealed Wednesday by Detroit-based Henry Ford at a preview of its new Oakland County hospital, an expansive 300-bed structure set to open March 15. The stone and brick building is attached to the existing medical center Henry Ford opened in 1975. The new hospital has a ground-floor retail area with small-town style storefronts and a look more in line with the feel of a northern Michigan lodge than a sterile medical building.
Along with its cozy resort-style look and all-private patient rooms, the hospital will have robot-assisted surgery, a one-stop care center to treat seniors with neurological illnesses, and a wellness center with day spa services and personal health coaches.
The female-only unit -- a ground-breaker in Metro Detroit, according to Henry Ford officials -- is on the hospital's third floor beside pediatrics and maternity. It will differ from a typical women's health center, where hospitals tend to group women's services, such as maternity and OB/GYN, because it will accommodate women with more generalized medical needs, such as recovering from surgery, Zambricki said.
...
And does Henry Ford know what men want?
'"We are going to start with women," Zambricki said, and depending on how that goes, "we may expand it to men."'

Another reason not to buy a Ford...
If I'm second class (if that) to Ford, then fine -- I won't buy a Ford, one of their brands, or anybody who winds up buying Ford.
they usually camouflage this type open misandry
with terms like "women and CHILDRENS" hospitals.
i'm driving a ford, but it will be my last.
